A brand new start ,,,,, again!!!

hello everyone

i am a 40+year old  mother of two with over 100 lbs to lose. I am a little (ok then alot) overwhelmed by the amount of weight i have to lose and am not sure if i will finally stick to something or if this will go the same way every other diet has gone. i usually start quite motivated but never actually achieve weight loss of any significance. My husband is the cook and is fabulous at developing menus for weight loss, however, he loses the weight and i dont! perhaps i have not been as honest as i think!

My BMI is 50 which scares the heck out of me, i am a professional, i understand food , my cholesterol level is good, my good fats far outway my bad fats and yet i cannot achieve what most people find as easy!

any help is greatly appreciated , i hope to be an inspiration to others with a story of success in the not too distant future, wish me luck!

Hi

I have just joined tonight and was looking for others trying to lose weight in the UK for support.  I've called myself goitalone but that means not giving my money to a slimming group every week as I have been doing for years and working on the principles of cutting back on calories and increasing walking.  I still appreciate the support of people who are also trying to do the same as me.  I understand what you say about knowing what to do - it's just doing it is the tricky bit !    Hope you are successful
